Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett's POV: 

"You're the one who proposed the divorce.You served me the papers the day I flew in home, remember?"

I corrected Charles.

"Yes.I just don't want you to bring it up every chance you get.What if you regret divorcing me one day?"

Once again, he was trying to sound all cool about the issue, but I thought he was just making an excuse.

"That's not going to happen," I answered firmly.

"Why are you so sure? Have you gotten a new boyfriend?" Charles asked, his voice taking on a sharp edge.

"As a matter of fact, I have.He's intelligent, wealthy, and powerful, and we love each other very much.So, yes, I'm sure I'll never regret divorcing you," I said like a winner.

"Scarlett!"

Charles shouted angrily.Then, his phone on the tea table rang.

As expected, the caller was his sweetheart, Rita.

The anger on Charles's face suddenly disappeared.

He glanced at his ringing phone and then looked at me.He hesitated for a long time before picking up his phone and putting it on speaker.

"Hi, Charles.I didn't mean to make Christine angry last time.Can you take me to her today? I want to apologize," Rita said in a soft voice.

"I don't think that's a good idea.She hasn't fully recovered yet.I don't want to stress her out.Let's just wait for her to get better, okay?"

Charles replied without any expression on his face.

"Very well.Can you come accompany me today? I'm lonely, and I miss you very much."

If I had not known Rita, I would not have recognized her voice over the phone.I found it hard to believe that she could speak in such a sincere tone.I did not want to eavesdrop on their conversation anymore, so I put on my shoes and walked toward the door.But when I realized that I was still in Charles's pajamas, I halted.

"I'll swing by if I have time, all right? Goodbye."

Rita tried to stop Charles from hanging up on her, but she did not succeed.

Before she could say anything more, he already cut the line.

Charles tossed his phone to the tea table and looked up at me.

"Grandma wants us to come see her at the hospital."

"Okay, but I have to go home first to change."

Taking a look at his pajamas that I was wearing, Charles picked up his phone again and called his assistant.
